Jamie is a 13-year-old boy whose story is told in the gripping Netflix series Adolescence, a four-part drama that explores peer pressure, social media, and teen brain development through the lens of a murder investigation. We break down the psychological and emotional elements behind Jamie’s actions, looking at the real-life neuroscience that explains why adolescence is such a vulnerable time for impulsive behavior, risk-taking, and emotional reactivity.We also open up about the personal side of parenting during this stage of life, from navigating tech boundaries to facing fears around illness and mortality. As two mental health providers (and moms), we dive into the challenges of supervising kids in a digital world, the need for stronger support systems, and why even “normal” families need to stay vigilant. Plus, we share actionable tools, including how to build a personalized family tech plan to create healthier habits at home.If you're interested in a personalized Family Tech Plan, email us at [email protected]!Join hosts Jessica Eisenstat, a Licensed Professional Counselor, and Dr. Lauren LaRose, a Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist, as they dive into raw and real conversations about all things kids.
